zuelan commission giving special atten-
ton to Frederick X. Coudert, and quoting
at length from interviews with Mr.. Coudert
approving President Cleveland's course pub

nrofoupdIv in,nreseed with Tho gravitv
the situation which threatens the peac
now and happily so long existing betwet
pealS to the common sense and the common
interests of the people OF both countries to
avert the calamity of war by a resort to
arbitration or other friendly negotiations,
which has so often been found to be a suffi-
cient and satisfactory mode of settling in
ternational disputes, and TO which both gov
ernments stand committed by profession,
precedent and the humanitarian spirit or
the age.
Accompanying the resolution was an adj
dress in the same tenor as the resolution
which cited many instances in which con-
troversies between the United States and
foreign nations had been settled by arbi-
tration. Carl SchurZ spoke in favor of the
resolution, and submitted proposition for
the appointment of board OF inquiry or
advisory council, to be composed or men
of international renown, which was accept
ed as an addition TO the original resolution

to resist the operation of great navy like
that of Great Britain. After several others

senting votes.
A transcript OF General Schurzs resolu-
ton adopted to-day was later submitted TO
Frederick r. Coudert one OF President
Cleveland's commissioners. In reference to
the resolution, Mr.. Coudert SAID: 1t would
be indecorous for me to say anything re-
garding the resolution. / have not had a
chance yet to reflect on my duties. and
feel that I would be lacking in respect to
the President of the United States If L made
any comment on the matter at issue at this

BALTIMORE. Jan. I'D. c. Gilman, pres
ident of Johns Hopkins University, has not
yet received official notification of his ap-
pointment on the commission to consider
the Venezuelan boundary dispute. To re-
porter he said: ''In advance of official knowl-
edge and instructions from Washington I
am unprepared to say anything on the SUBJ
ject. You may say that the names Of the
commissioners were not made public until
the President was informed of their willing
ness to accept his tender of the position.
ence that in every instance the executive
beyond doubt, find it entirely feasible to
serve on the commission"
When asked if he would not, in view Of
his well-known familiarity with the physi-
cal geography OF Venezuela, give the public
such pertinent facts in this regard bore
upon the question of the divisional bound
airy line in dispute, President Gilman re-
piled: 81 cannot see my way clear. much as
l might like to discuss these matters, to do
so prematurely and in advance of definite
knowledge as to what L shall do. This
whole thing has been very suddenly sprung
on me and 1 have had no time, as yet, to
give 1T consideration. Until l do, / cannot
say anything which would be of any value
TO those desiring correct information in re-
gard to the matter. After the preliminary
steps necessary to the constitution Of the
commission definitely settled it may
then be within my power to say something

ITHACA, N. Y, Jan. 2.-Ex-President
White, of Cornell. when asked about his
appointment as a member of the Venezue-
Ian commission, replied that he had not
been officially Informed Of any determined
appointment.
''Will you accept it if tendered?" he was
asked.
II would prefer not to state positively as
to that"
What do you think of the present status
of the question generally.
''Wel, 1 have not been able to devote
much time to the question of late. You may
say, however, that presume the first meet
ing will be held at Washington, and that
at an early day a whole session Of the COM
mission will probably be held in Washing
ton. Please excuse me from saying any
thing further until an official announce
ment of some sort reaches me. Later / may
be prepared to give further and more def
mite information"

IRON AND STEEL TRADE.
Resume Of the Industries From Bulletin
Of the American Steel AssOcia.
tiOn-PrOduct Of 1895.

Philadelphia, May 20-The Bulletin
of the American Iron and Steel asso-
citation this week In its resume of the
iron and steel trade, says: while the
demand for iron and steel In the early
months of 1896 has declined. as COM
pared with the demand in the summer
and in the closing months OF 1895. infiu-
ences have been at work which have
thus far prevented ru.nous shrinkage
In prices. In September, 1895. the price
of Connelsville furnace coke was ad-
vanced from sl.35 to $3.50 per ton, and
in December it was still further ad
vanced to 81 per ton, which Is the pres
ent quotation. Early in the present
year an understanding was reached by
the producers of Lake Superior iron ore
which closely fOreshado"ed n mate
rial avandce In orOn ore prices. and In
March these prices wfre definitely fixed
for the year at an advance averaging
over 81 per tone above the prices of
1895. These advances in the price of
raw materials compelled the manufac-
turers of Besselner pig iron to Increase
their prices late in March. and the ad-
vance then secured has since been fair
ly we'll maintained. Early in April ali
understanding with regard to prices
was also reached by the producers of
Bessemer steel billets. by which the
price OF billets was promptly advanced.
this advance being rendered necessary
by the increase in the price of Bessemer
pig iron. Other iron and steel prices
have shown varying tendencies in April
and May. The improvement In the de-
mand for iron and steel in 1895 and the
increase in iron and steel prices were
accompanied by general advance in
the wages of iron and steel workers.
coke workers and coal miners. This
advance was almost without exception
voluntary on the part of the employers
and 1t was also spontaneous.
'The recovery Of our iron and steel
industries In 1895 from the prostration
of 1893 and 1894 was not only complete,
but 1t was remarkable In the me gnitude
of the results that We're attained. In
most branches of these Industries the
largest production ever recorded was
achieved in 1895 Steel rails form the
only notable exception to the ule Of
largest production in that year.
"A summary Of the leading results
established by the statistical details
to be presented hereafter Is worthy Of
the prominence that Is here given to it.
In 1895 the United States made 9.A46, ,3cS
gross tons Of pig iron, 1909 1873 tons Of
bessemer steel ingots: 1,137,1S2 tons Of
