THOUGHT HE MAY BACK DOWN

Statement From Salisbury on tho Ven
ezuslan Question Promised Soon.
LONDON, Dec. 21.-Sir Michael Hicks
Beach, chancellor of the exchequer,
made an address in Bristol which con
tanned an important suggestion of the
probable next step to be taken by the
British government in the Venezuelan
controversy, namely, the issuance Of .
statement by Lord Salisbury, which Sir
Michael intimated, might put 3 new
face on affairs. The chancellor warned
his hearers against exaggerating the
gravity of the Venezuelan trouble.
Some persons, he went on, how
ever, talk Of the impossibility of
war between the United States and
Great Britain because Of the ties
Of kinship between the two nations.
Nothing was impossible, he asserted,
which had already occurred, and il
kinsmen unfortunately differed some.
times, they became very bitter enemies.
But there were reassurances, he said, in
the TACT that he did not believe the peo-
pie on either side of the Atlantic de.
sired war. He thought that when the
true statement which Lord Salisbury
had about prepared in dispatches wal
shortly published the result would b
happy, honorable and peaceful to both
sides.

Said the President Will Not Recall Him
just at Present.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2l.-Reports were
current here, due largely to the excited
state of the public on the Venezuelan
question, and to the prior attack ON him
in the house of representatives, by Mr..
Barrett and others, hat the recall of
Ambassador Bayard was imminent.
Private Secretary Thurber, when asked
about them, made an absolute denial of
their accuracy, adding that the ambas.
sador's recall was not contemplated. At
the British embassy the belief was ex-
pressed that the rumor We're untrue.
1t is believed here that the president
would not at this time make any change
IN our embassy to Great Britain, for it
could not but aggravate the present
situation.

will be also possible to run a
system Of drives from each of the

bic that Milwaukee will be connected
