Mr. Eustis has verbally and in writing communicated hls instructions to the Frenen Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. Hanotaux, but the latter has not yet replied to these Communications. The representations made by Mr. Eustis were extremely courteous and were intended to develop the French side of the case.
