WILL ARBITRATe THE DISPUTE.
War Between Peru and Bolivia Avorted
by che Papai Ablegate.


by che Fapai Ablesate.
LIMA, Peru, July 16.-The extreme
state of irritation and excitement which
existed hero when 1t first became known
that Bolivia had made peremtory de-
mand for immediate satisfaction of her
claims shows some signs Of abatement,
and 1t is now believed that mode OF
peaceful settlement may be arrived at
through the good offices of the papal le-
gate.
The acute crisis In the relations between
the two countries were precipitatsd by the
demand Of the Bolivian minister to Peru,
on behalf of his government. for i'm
mediate satisfaction for the outrages com
mitted on the frontier between the two
countries by the Cacerist forces during
the late civil war
The Peruvian government replied that
1t was disposed to entertain the demand
for satisfaction, and was inclined to recog-
nize the Justice Of the claim advanced,
but the government refused the demand
OF Bolivia to salute the flag.
The papal delegate to Peru has sug-
gested that the point In dispute should be
submitted to arbitration, and the Peru
Wan government has accepted the idea.
