Letter

Marquis de Noailles to Hamilton Fish, July 12, 1873

No. 123. Marquis de Noailles to Mr. Fish.

[Translation.]

Mr. Secretary of State: I have the honor herewith to transmit to your excellency a copy of a dispatch which I have just received from my government. It appears from this dispatch that the Italian government is not disposed to ratify the draft of a convention proposed by the minister of Italy in Japan, and rejects the conditions proposed for the free travel of foreigners in the interior of that empire.

I have thought that your excellency would learn this decision of the Italian government not without interest.

Be pleased to accept, &c.

MARQUIS DE NOAILLES.
