My eear Mr. Secretery.

W111 you not be kind enough to
to Ur. Bakhnetoff that in view of my many en-
gagements 1 find it impossible to arrange to
have an interview with Mr. Konoveloff, and that
I am glad to think that it would be of no par-
ticular service to me , inasmach I know that
you and Colonel House will have an opportunity
to talk with him informally.

Cordially and sincerely yours,

enc.
Hon. Robert Lancing.
Secretary of State.
