The Arbitration Agreement.
Pending this arduous investigation, how
ever. the govern ments of the United States
and Great Britain have omitted no en-
deavor to reach friendly understanding
upon the main issue Of principle through
diplomatic negotiation. and it is most graf
flying to al ncunce that amicable counsels
have prevailed to induce satisfactory re-
suit. whereby the boundary question and
Its associated phases have been at last
eliminated as between this country and
England. A complete accord has been
reached between them, by which the sub
stantial terms of a treaty Of arbitration
to be concluded by Great Britain and
Venezuela have been agreed upon, the pro-
visions OF which embrace a full arbitra-
ton of the whole controversy upon bases
alike just and honorable to both the con-
testants. 1t only remains for the two par
ties directly concerned to complete this
equitable arrangement by signing the pro-
posed formal treaty. and no doubt is enter
tanned that VeceZuela, which has so earn
estly sought the friendly assistance of the
United States tow ard the settlement Of
this vexatious contention, and which has
so unreservedly confided its interests to
the impartial judgment of this government,
will assent to the formal adjustment thus
attained. thus forever ending dispute in
volving fdr-reaching consequences to the
peace and welfare of the western continent.
Coincidently with the consideration of the
Venezuelan boundary question, the two
governments have continued negotiations
for a general convention, in the line of
the recommendations of the British house
nf commons. to which previous messages
Of the President have adverted. that all
differences hereafter arising between the
