Will ARB|TRATE
Great Britain Has Concluded to Sub
init Her Venezuelan Pre-
tensions
TO FIVE IMPARTIAL JUDGES
A Treaty to This Effect Has Been
Finally Entered Into at
Washington.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O.-The arbitra.
ton OF the Venezuelan dispute is a set.
tied fact, All the arrangements have
been completed and all the details of the
arbitration treaty between the United
States and Great Britain arranged. The
final terms of the treaty OF arbitration
were arranged in this city last night
The treaty covers Venezuela only and
does not include a general treaty Of ar
bitration of all future disputes between
the two great English speaking nations.
This treaty is to be arranged later by
future negotiations. The Venezuelan
five arbitrators, two to be named by the
United States, two by Great Britain,
these four to select the fifth arbitrator.
Venezuela will not be directly repre-
sented in the commission.
The term OF occupancy necessary to
exempt British settlements in the dis
puted territory from arbitration is fixed
at so years, according to additional cor
respondence on the subject which has
just been discovered. In other words,
the British government has agreed to
the unrestricted arbitration of all terri
tory in dispute within a period for the
acquisition of title by prescription fixed
by the agreement OF the parties in adj
vance at so years.
Lord S%alisbury's acceptance of this
common law doctrine Of prescription as
applicable to international dispute is
eaid to be in line with the views laid
down by international writer's, who have
differed only rs to the length of occu-
pancy essential to establish title. Most
of our states have adopted from 10 to 20
years. The original English rule was
that the occupancy should be so long
that the "memory Of man runnoth not
to the contrary" The international
writer's have fixed 20, 80, and, in some
cases, as high as 100 years as the period
necessary to establish title. No inter
national writer has placed the period be-
Ao" ~ JoulD, oo LIlu ~ hulbheEduOI Day
ard is right in his belief that 20 years
will constitute the test of British right,
it indicates an indisposition to yield the
fullest extent. Among the diplomats it
is felt that the efforts of the Venezuelan
commission have not been in vain. 1t is
regarded as u moral force which has
helped to ward the present res lit.
Moreover, the commission has ac-
cumulated a mass OF evidence bearing
directly on the facts of British occu-
pancy, which is now the test of settle
ment. The f~ullness of this information
gained by the commission leads to some
general comment as to the probable
choice of Justice Brewer or OF lers of the
commission rs arbitrator, but this is
purely speculative.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-Thc king of
Sweden and Norway, Oscar H., has been
chosen by the treaty between the United
States and Great Britain af the fifth
official arbitrator OF the Venezuelan
boundary question, The other four
arbitrators are to be designated, two by
the lord chief justice of England and
two by the chief justice of the United
States. This is the final and most i'm
portant part OF the treaty for the com
plete adjustment of the long pending
Venezuelan controversy. The treaty was
concluded in Washington last night at
the British embassy, Sir Julian Paunce.
fote representing her Britannia majesty,
and Secretary Olney the United States.
Since the return of Sir Julian from
London three weeks ago, negotiations
toward the final settlement nave been
proceeding. Most of the meetings
were OF such important character that
they were held either at Olney's resi-
dence or ut the British embassy, the two
houses being bat two blocks separate. 1t
happened that the concluding meeting
WAS at the embassy yesterday and special
interest was given to it from the fact that
Lord Salisbury, the British premier, was
TO make a speech at Guild hall, London,
IN the evening. 1t is an annual event, at
winch the premier usually takes occasion
10 review important international ques-
'lons' For this reason, it was desired, if
possible, to %acquaint Lord Salisbury of
Inc hnal and satisfactory adjustment of
the Venezuelan question, in order that
ne might mako such announcement as
no thought fit concerning it. When
secretary Olney and Sir Julian reached
'noir hnal conclusions, u cablegram was
kal once dispatched to Lord Salisbury,
Anotiiylng him of the result. 1t reached
Rn'h within one hour of the time whom
HHo went on the platform at Guild hall,
g"na 1t was the basis for his %announce-
R"ent to England and to the entire
world that the Venezuelan controversy
was settled. 1t was the general an
gA'uncement without detail and without
reference to the personnel OF the
scourt OF arbitration. Thus Washington
zsnu London participated in this event.

Hot or Cold Water.

In O paper read before a medical asso.
citation recently Il prominent physician
says, concerning tho use of hot and colo
water, that while tho majority have
concluded that hot water Is better for
bathing the eyes thoro are cases where
cold is required and that the patient
should decide for himself, giving the
preference to thft which the moro
quickly relieves the pain aud leaves no
bad effects, lfol water is generally O II
sidered TO be fur better than cold for
bruises. Water which is not too cold
drunk in quantities is one of the best
means of producing tho p%erspiration
necessary for curing q heavy cold. 1t is
SAID that a bowl of water stood at the
side of tho bed will often cure troubled
sleep as well az insomnia. 1t is an adj
mirablo method Of purifying tho atmos-
phcro of a room which has become foul
with tobacco smoke. -Brooklyn Eagle.
