FATHER STRICKLANDS BOOK
PROVES TRUSTWORTHY

London. oct. 9.-Father Strickland has issued
book on the Venezuelan boundary. based on
documents and maps found in the archives Of
the Capucin order. These show that mission
aries in the eighteenth century had missions be
tween the extreme limit Of the British claim
and the SchomburGk line. and none whatever
In the arce incosei by the Schomburgk line
They also show that there was Dutch post
in the Yuruar district half century earlier
than any Spanish missionary
The book tends to the conclusion that tho
rights of Great Britain. as far as the Schom-
burgk line. are rrcfragible and that regarding
the region beyond the line Great Britain has
as much right "a Venezuela.
The documents establish indubtably the
Dutch right on the whole colst To and nclud-
ing Point Bnrinia. and also 10 parts far IN the
hinterland. They show that there are certain
tracts In different parts Of Venezuela and
Guiana which were not seized by either the
Dutch or Spaniards and the present ownership
Of these Father Strickland contends. can only
be settled by diplomacr or arbitration.
