Mr. Egan to Mr. Blaine.

[Telegram.]

Legation of the United States,
Santiago, December 22, 1891.

Mr. Egan reports that the Argentine minister made representations on the previous day to the minister for foreign affairs as dean of the diplomatic corps, who promised that only the police officers in uniform would be left around the legation and the detectives should be withdrawn. He states that the annoyances have been abated, but not removed, and the promise made by the foreign office complied with in part only.
