Mr. Adee to Mr. Eddy.

[Telegram.—Paraphrase.]

(Mr. Adee directs Mr. Eddy to informally consult the Russian ambassador and say that the United States Government would be pleased if he might feel free to use at once his good offices and exert his influence, in whatever direction, in aid of the rescue of Miss Stone, and states that Mr. Eddy may, in the same way, invoke the aid of any other foreign minister who may be able to render assistance.)
