THE VENEZUELA DISPUTE
Salisbury Government Admits Official
Proposals Have Been Received
from the United States.
The NATURE THEREOF NOT DISCLOSED
A Resolution Pending in Austrian Con-
gress Providing That the Govern
ment Lend Active Aid to Inter
national Bimetallism.

London, March 16.--The under score
tary of state for foreign affairs, George
N. Cursor, in the house of commons to-
day, admitted that the government had
received official proposals from the
United States relative to the Venezuelan
dispute and that they we're now under
consideration. He said it was not cor
rect to describe them, as stated in the
question put to the government, as an ex-
preston on the part of the United States
of willingness to accept or propose a
scheme for a joint commission to report
on the Venezuelan boundary dispute.

sleeps in stuffed ballot-boxes and
