Letter from David E. Thompson to Elihu Root

Ambassador to Mexico David E. Thompson sends Secretary of State Elihu Root translations of telegrams given to him by Mexican President Porfirio Díaz between July 12 and July 15. The telegrams reveal Diáz’s efforts to urge the Presidents of Guatemala and El Salvador to agree to an armistice, in hopes of negotiating peace. Thompson notes that if Guatemalan President Estrada Cabrera is suspicious of Diáz’s intentions, President Roosevelt can assure him that Diáz is simply interested in peace for the two countries. Thompson finds Diáz to be sincere and correct in his dealings with both.
