Tbe impression seems to have gained currency tbat the change was made by the state department because of dissatisfaction with Mr. Conger's action. It Is said at the department that Conger was relieved at his own request, and his cable message of laat week strongly urged that he be allowed to come home for 00 days, not Intimating any purpose on his part to remain longer in the United States. In the same message Mr. Conger recommended tbat Mr. Bockhlll be charged with the conduct of the negotiations, and in so directing tbe state department bas done nothing more than carry out tbe request of Mr. Conger.
