Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations of the United States, Transmitted to Congress, With the Annual Message of the President, December 9, 1891

Mr. Egan to Mr. Blaine.

Legation of the United States,
Santiago, August 5, 1891. (Received September 26.)

No. 189.]

Sir: I beg to say that all of the telegrams which have reached me recently by way of Europe and the transandine route have arrived in such an unintelligible condition that I have been obliged to have them repeated, in some cases two and three times.

The Central and South American Company will be found much more expeditious, cheaper, and more correct.

I have, etc.,

Patrick Egan.
