SALISBURY SUBMITS PAPERS.
Documents Laid on the

Venezuelan Documents Laid on the
Table in the House of Lords. E.
London. July 11.-in the House OF Lords
today Lord Salisbury laid upon the table
OF that body the papers relating to the
boundary dispute petween Great Britain
and Venezuela.
Lord Salisbury. in presenting the docu-
ments. said that ne negotiat.ons between Great
Britain and the United States in regard
to the Venezuelan matter were stall in
progress. The government, he added, did
not believe that the claim made by Fene-
zuela was suitable subject for arbitra-
ton. but when the facts in the case as
regarded the past history OF Venezuela
were fully obtained he thought that the
diplomatic question Involved could be
easily adjusted.
Lord Salisbury stated that concurrently
with the negotiations which were in
progress with the United States in regard
to the dispute between Great Britain and
Venezuela. negotiations were aiso going
on between the British and American gov
erninenIs cu' .t',it Il IL tnt. - u i'>ii'I eni
of a scheme of general arbitration of
questions which might arise between the
two nations. This. however, he said, was
a matter which required great care and
circumspection.
IOfu SALISBURY Ht lido tdheh
an unusual course in the thus early
productioDo Dofthepapersi in the Venezuela case
for the reason that the recess of the United
states Congress had begun and the recess
of the British Parliament would soon be
commenced. 1t had therefore been thought
that it might be convenient for the House
to know what was going on.
The negotiations between the U nited
states and Great Britain were still incom-
plete, he said, but they were advancing
ainicably. IN pursuing the negotiations the
government had taken two courses. In
the first and the smaller question with
Venezuela, upon which negotiations had
been carried on with the United States
rather than with Venezuela, no conclusion
has as yet been arrived at.
Lord Sa nsbury announced that the
government would shortly place upon the
table of the house another blue book in
regard TO Venezuela, which would enable
the house to see the extent of the labors
of the government in the matter. When the
facts were ascertained, he said, it would
probably be easy to settle the matter. If
not, 1t would still be perfectly easy to
settle the particular issues at stake.
Concurrent with these negotiations, Lord
Salisbury continued, the government had
reopened the negotiations which were COM
menced during tSe time Of the ministry
of Lord Roseberry upon the question OF
general arbitration and which were term
mated probably in consequence OF the
lamented death of one of the negOtiators
and partly owing to the difficulty which
had not yet been surmounted of dealing
with cases so large and affecting interests
so vital that statesmen thought twice be-
fore deciding. There had been much dis
cussion with the United States upon these
points He thought the tendency of the
government of the United States was to de-
sire a rapid and summary decision.

would probably be arranged TO have the

People poured into the train at several
stations and rode short distances the

by the state Department lai5 night.
They Constitute the first authoritative dis
closures upon these great questions since
President Clevelands famous Christmas
tide message to Congress.
Little substantial progress toward II

the documents. An outline in part OF the
proposed procedure is laid down and the
views of the two governments are SO ex-
plicitly stated that future discussion may
be confined toward narrowing the few
Emergencies Of method.
Is STILL VIGILANT.
The further fact is made apparent that
the United States has not relaxed its
vigilance in demanding a just settlement
of the Venezuelan boundary question, anti
has rejected tie British proposals for arbi-
trating that dispute under terms involving
the surrender of any part OF Venezueia's s
claims.
The correspondence opens with letter
from Ambassador Bayard TO Lord Sails
bury dated February 27 last, stating that
his Instructions continued TO indicate an
urgent desire to have the q uiauian boundary
question removed as soon as practicable
from he atmosphere OF possible controversy,
and proposing an entrance forthwith upon
