London. Feb. 12-The most important
announcement in the opening days pro-

Salisbury respecting the Venezuelan af-

negotiations with Venezuela would soon
be resumed and a great obstacle to settle

received with as much enthusiasm as was
ever shown I'm the house of lords. A. j.
Balfour. In the house of commons, also
took pains 10 deny that there had been the
slightest intention TO violate the substance
OF the Monroe doctrine, and reaffirmed his
hope that some permanent system OF ar
bitration OF disputes with America would
be devised Ali references made in either
house TO the Venezuela affair were most
concilatory in tone Lord Roseoery men
toned the Maxim gun episode in British
Guiana. and Sir William Vernon Harcourt
expressed regret that the British case had
not been published more promptly, but the
opposition leaders made no attempt 10 deal
with the subject in partisan spirit.
Opinion in the Hobbies was general that
the Venezuelan question had virtually been
q,
detail. The United States government. by
bringing moral pressure TO bear upon the
Caracas government, has opened a way for
a resumption of diplomatic intercourse
between Venezuela and England, and also
has stipulated for an expression OF regret
for the Uruan incident. Whether the en-
tire boundary dispute VIII be eventually
submitted TO arbitration or some compro-
mise substituted for the Schomburgk line
Is an open question. but confidence was
confessed in the Hobbies that some form OF
adjustment would be speedily effected,
honorable and satisfactory 10 all parties.
This method Of settlement Will leave Pres
ident Cleveand's commission high In the
air, or al least reduce the functions of the
United States To those of an executive adj
visory board. But the main American
point will be gained-the settlement OF a
frontier dispute OF long standing. To this
win be added the general disposition on
the part OF English political leaders and
the press to treat the Monroe doctrine with
more respect than formerly. and to advo-
cate some scheme for arbitrating all dis
putes or controversies which may subse-
quently arise with the United States.
While these views may be unduly san
guine. II is evident from the tone of the
debates IA the two houses that long step
has been taken in the direction Of perfect
peace and harmony between the two
branches OF the English-speaking. race.
II is announced on authority that. fol-
lowing the advice OF the United States,
Venezuela has practically decided to send
a representative TO London with power 10
open direct negotiations with the govern
ment of Great Britain for settlement of the
boundary dispute.

John Dillon anti-Parnellite. said he would
not be surprised II the beggarly character
OF the reference TO Ireland in the speech

Irishmen the conviction that nothing

by violent agitation. Continuing, Dillon
cGrtrasted the treatment OF Or. jane
sons force with the treatment of Irish
political prisoners and said he would OPP
pose the additional expenditures proposed
for the navy unless part OF the surplus
was devoted to Ireland. Dillon also an
nounced an amendment 70 the address
censurinc the government for not propes-
ing self-government for Ireland. They
were tainted, Dillon continued, by the
government with having lost control Of

Not long ago. Dillon stated, there was
a great deal of talk about British ships
