New-York tribune., 1890-06-13

If the occupation of territory spoken Of above has
really taken place. it may have been only the act Of
some French officer in the pursuit of the marauding
bands of Indians prowng both sides of the Franco
Dutch frontier-something like the raids which some
times occur on the Rio Grande border. 1t is more
than improbable that the French Government its
Colonial Governor at Cayenne should have deliberately
ordered any such military movement, just at 4 time
when the pending question of limits between Dutch
and French Guiana is nearing diplomatic settlement
II Will be remembered that the Car had been asked
by the Governments of France and Holland to act as
an arbitrator and that he declined at first because the
question at issue not defined with sufficient pre-
cison But il was reported lately that France and
Holland had agreed upon definite ground regarding
their colonial frontier and that the Gar had con-
sented arbitrator IL Is unlikely, therefore,
that one of the disputants could have thought OF or
dering any military expedition which would ruin the
efforts already made by both Of them 10 settle by
diplomatic arbitration their small quarrel.
