ener. intends to demand an addition OF

Washington. Dec. 29.-The hearings
which the ways and means committee
Of the house will give to the repre-.
sentatives Of the various industries in
terested in the preparation of the new
tariff bill began in the room Of the
committee at the Capitol yesterday
and will continue daily until Jan. IL.
Much interest was manifested, and the
room was constantly thronged with
delegations and the representatives of
various trades. Owing to the brief
time allotted for hearings and the de-
sire Of the committee. as expressed
by Chairman Dingley. to avoid I'M
necessary repetitions many Of those
who appeared simply filed their briefs
and made no oral arguments. Dingley
expressed the opinion that the pre-
eentation of condensed briefs would
answer the purpose OF the committee
better than argument. and advised the
filing Of such briefs where possible.
He announced that briefs would be
received until Jan. II. Only seven of
the seventeen members Of the commit
tee were present yesterday-Dingiey,
Payne Of New York. Evans of Ken
lucky. Dalxell Of Pennsylvania, and
johnson of North Dakota-Republicans
and McMillin Of Tennessee and Wheeler
Of Acknowledgement The schedules
upon which hearings were accorded
were those relating to chemicals and
spirits and wines. There were no par
ticular Incidents. Without exception all
who appeared asked for an increase of
the duties on the particular industrv
in which they were interested. Almost
all Of those who appeared In behalf of
changes in the chemical schedule urged
a change from advalorem to specific
duties.

Warrington. Dec. 29.-Secretary o.
ney left the state department at II
O'Clock yesterday and went direct to
the British embassy. where he held Q
long conference by appointment with
Sir Julian Pauncefote. the British am
bassador. relative to the status OF the
Venezuela settlement and the general
treaty Of arbitration between the Unit
ed States and Great Britain. Oiney's
call followed the arrival Of Minister
Andrade. of venexuela. and James
]. Storrow. counsel in the Venezuela
case. who reached Washington late
Sunday evening. The results of the con.
ference were guarded with the usual
secrecy which prevails at meetings be-
tween the secretary and the ambassa-
dor. but there Is good reason to believe
it was the occasion for going over sew
eral new phases OF the Venezuela Ques-
ton which have developed with the re-
turn Of the officials from Caracas.
The officials themselves are extreme
ly reticent and will say only in gen.
eral terms that the prospect Of an &C.
ceptance Of the settlement by vens-
xuela is good. 1t is understood, how.
ever. that there are important limita-
lions to this acceptance. which appear
to make the case less hopeful of an
immediate and satisfactory conclusion
than has been expected. II seems that
Venexuela is waiting to see q draft Of
the whole proposed treaty, instead of
the outline she has received, before de-
Gliding. As to the Anglo-American ar
bitration treaty no doubt exists of its
approval.
