0001. Department’s telegram of August 31, 2 p.m. At noon today I read personally to the Governor of Vizcaya a translation of the circular instruction receiving his assurance that all Government military authorities on this coast will be instructed accordingly. I am unable to communicate directly with the insurgents at Burgos and other near interior points but I am endeavoring to have Vigo informed through the proper channels.
