Letter
Robert C. Schenck to Hamilton Fish, May 9, 1872
No. 41. General Schenck to Mr. Fish.
[Telegram.]
London, May 9, 1872.
Lord Granville proposes to modify his amended note, I telegraphed you on the 6th, by substituting “They will not bring for consideration the indirect claims before the Arbitrators,” for the words “The Arbitrators are not to have regard, in any award they may make, to the claims for indirect losses.”
I promised him I would submit the change to you, but thought it would be considered more objectionable than before, inasmuch as the United States insist that those claims are now rightfully before the Tribunal.
SCHENCK.
