The Secretary of the Navy ( Daniels ) to the Secretary of State
My Dear Mr. Secretary: I am in receipt of your favor of September 2nd with reference to the case of Fabio Fiallo and Amerigo Lugo. The following cablegram has been sent to Rear Admiral Thomas Snowden, Military Governor of Santo Domingo:
“Suspend all proceedings with reference to men who have been arrested for alleged revolutionary tendencies until you hear from me, and suspend sentences pending approval in Washington. Mail full reports with findings for action here.”
Will not this meet the situation?
Sincerely yours,
