Wasnineron, March 28, —The state department communication which the president transmtted to the house h was in response to the resolution H passed yesterday requiring any proto- col or other documentssigned by Tres- cott relating to poace between Chili and Peru. The response states that no protocol ordocument of that nature hrs been received from Trescott, and no nformation hasbeen received from him or any American representative in Chili or Peru that such a document has been signed. The president, how- ever deems it proper to submit copies of correspondence with Trescott since his last communication to the house on the subject. The first document submitted is a telegram from Frelinghuysen| to Trescott, dated February 4th, saying the president instructs him to say the Uunited States government only pro- poses to give counsel and aid negotia- tions. Chili must determine whether it is wise to accept counsel. No part will be taken by the United States in negotiations based on the surrender of [arapaca and the payment of 20,- 000,000 indemnity. The demand is t looked upon as exorbitant, and the | yauional Associated Pros. time is come when Chili can afford to be magnanimous and_just, daring scoundrels visited the house of A telegram from Frelinghuysen to |, Trescott, dated 21st of February, permits Trescott to assist to a liberal Tar:pv & must to_without further consultation with is not possible the creditors of Peru may maintan its revenues, which are | ;. hypothecated to them. The telegram closes by saymng: urged moderation on the part of Chili.” Next follows a long letter from |} Frelinghuysen to Trescott, dated February 24th, in which he reiterates the suggestions of the dispatches mentioned, and says the president is very desirous of having the good offices of the United States made available in vestoring peace, butis unwilling to become the medium for & proposal which he thinks so enor- maous that it cannot be entertained by Peru, He isstill of the opinion that it would ba the part of wisdom for Chili to accept from Peru a just indemnity in money,guaranteed if in- sisted upon, by temporary occupa- tion of territory, rather than to pre- emptorily demand cession of territory. On the other hand he is convinced S that the United States has no right either by treaty stipulation or public law to 1mpose upon the billigerents unasked, its views and it has no in- terests at stake 80 commensura’e Wwith the evils which might fol- low interference, which would authorizeit to interpose further than as indicated. If Chili is indisposed to listen to his advice, the president will not take part in negotiations based on both surrender of Tarapaca and payment of a large indemuity. To demand of Peru the surrender of a valdable province and the payment ¢t $20,000,000 in ten years, with a disorganized government and des- poiled territory, is to ask what she cannot render, and the president feels that Trescott may frankly and in a friendly spirit bring these considorations before she m nister d of foreign affairs in convereatio with him. 1t is understood that ali Peru west of the Andes is in occuvaiiun by 8 Chili, and all cure in maintaiuing the ‘1 government and protecting. society is | thrown upon the hcstile occupiers.
