Assistant Secretary of State Adee sends communications from President Porfirio Díaz of Mexico and President Fernando Figueroa of El Salvador regarding the selection of a location for the conference, with his reflections and the opinions of the Central American ministers Joaquín Bernardo Calvo Mora of Costa Rica and Luis Felipe Corea of Nicaragua. Secretary of State Elihu Root thinks Mexico would be the right choice. If Washington, D.C. is selected as the location, the conference could not be scheduled until Root returns from Mexico, following diplomatic etiquette.
