Ex-President Harrison VIII Take the
Stump for Republican Success.
CHICAGO, July 21.-A special to The
Tribune from Indianapolis says !: The
first authoritative political statement
from General Harrison since the St.
Louis convention was given out during
the evening just after he had finished
packing his effects for trip to the New
York mountains, where he will spend
the summer. He said:
II have been SO busy with magazine
articles and legal business that it will
be impossible for me to take any active
part in the campaign before some time
in October. I cannot allow myself to
be quoted on the issues without thor
ough preparation, but I desire to say
that ! was pleased to see the Repubi-
can convention take the stand it did for
sound money. I believe in the platform
and earnestly desire the success of the
party"

Promised Address Of Teller and His As
sociates Given to the Public.
DENVER, July 21.-Senator Teller and
six of his associates who left the ma
tional Republican convention have
made public an address to the silver Re-
publicans Of the country, setting forth
their views of the situation. The silver
Republicans, congressman and senators,
have been in conference for several days
at Manitou over this statement. In adj
dition to those signing the address SEN
tors Pettigrew of South Dakota and
Cannon of Utah are declared to be in
sympathy with it, although Senator
Cannon was not present at the confer
ence, owing to business engagements
in Boston. The address goes into the
discussion of the money question at
length and then declares for Bryan.

they are advancing amicably. On the
smaller question of Venezuela, regard
ing which the United States had as
sumed an attitude Of friendly protec-
tion, difficulties arose out of the fact
that Venezuela's claim placed two
thirds Of the colony Of British Guiana
subject to arbitration. The first thing
necessary was to ascertain the real facts
in regard to the controversy from the
history of Venezuela. When that had
been fully ascertained by commission,
in which both countries had confidence,
he felt that the diplomatic questions
which would follow would not be very
difficult Of adjustment, but even if they
should be, he did not fear for the result.

Result Of q Canvass Made Among Populist

ST. LOUIS, July 21.-Marion Williams,
delegate at large from Texas, made a
canvass during the afternoon by request
of his associates of the delegations now
hefny aud reports the result thus
"Three-fourths are opposed to the en-
dorsemont of Bryan. The South is
solid against it. He may be nominated
by the convention if he accepts the
nomination on Populist platform. Mr..
Bryan, standing on the Chicago plat
form, will never be endorsed or nomin-
ated by the Populists.

this they have the open and active sup
port Of the silver party leaders, whose
convention is likely to be simply a
Bryan ratification meeting, and Of Sem

cratic national committee, who is here
with his lieutenants striving to this
end. Their strength spreads over the
entire country west of the Missouri,
where the cause Of silver is paramount.
Many Of the delegates from this Sec

salisbury's Scheme Not Satisfactory to
Olney on Vital Points-Corresponden
ON the Subject Between the Countries
Made Public.
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-The cores
pondence which has passed between the
governments of the United States and
Great Britain respecting the establish
ment of a general system Of arbitration
for the settlement of any disputes
which might arise between the two
countries, and also for the settlement
by arbitration Of the dispute over the
Venezuelan boundary, has been made
public in the shape Of an even dozen
letters which have been exchanged this
year between Secretary Olney, Lord
Salisbury, Sir Julian Pauncefote and
Ambassador Bayard. The correspond
ence is of great interest as marking
sensible advance towards the adoption
by the two English speaking nations
of the ~f.
Principle Of Arbitration
as the means of settling disputes be-
tween themselves, but the persons who
have looked forward with hope and ex-
pectation to the speedy conclusion Of
treaties embodying the arbitration prin-
ciple for the settlement of either or both
of the two great open issues between
the two nations are doomed to disap-
pointment, for at the date Of exchange
of the last note, one from Secretary
Olney to the British ambassador here,
dated within month past, points Of
the most vital nature in the case, not
only Of the Venezuelan question but Of
the general arbitration proposition as
we'll, were still the subject Of discussion
without much expectation Of an early
adjustment. -..
Features Of the Correspondence.
Notable features of the correspond.
ence are the fact that whereas Mr..
Bayard, by instruction of Secretary
Olney, proposed negotiations at Wash
ington respecting the Venezuelan
boundary dispute, Lord Salisbury broad
ened it into a general arbitration
scheme, following lead set by the late
Secretary Gresham in the spring of
1895, so that Secretary Olney insisted
upon disassociating the two subjects,
evidently fearing an entangling alli-
ance otherwise. AS to general arbitra-
tion the issues which still prevent an
agreement ara the indisposition of the
British government to include terrific
rial disputes save with
| The Addition Of Provisions
that, in the estimation Of Secretary
Olney, will render the attempt at arbi-
tration nugatory, because there are no
means of making the findings Of the ar
bitrators binding upon the parties or of
removing them from the possibility of
infinite appeals. As to the Venezuelan
matter specifically, arbitration is linn
tied to the territory upon which British
subjects have not actually settled. "Imi-
tation arbitration" is what Secretary
Olney designates Lord Salisbury's prof
ect while the British premier criticizes
Secretary Olney's plans as calculated to
result in evil worse than war in the in.
stitution of innumerable suits to re-
| cover claimed territory.
