Mathé to P. S.— May 28. I have just seen in the Salvador papers a telegram from the President of Honduras to General Figueroa, offering the mediation of that Government in the present difficulty, and General Figueroa’s reply accepting the same very cordially. A similar proposal was sent to General Menendez, and although his reply had not been received there is little doubt but that he will accept the offer, and it is said that a meeting and conferences were to take place yesterday. I have every hope that it will result in peace being declared. J. MATHÉ, May 26, 1885
