Associated Press Dispatch by So ocial Wires.

Associated Press Dispatch by So ecial Wires.
Washington, Jan. mo communi-
cation or suggestion of any kind re-
garding the Venezeula dispute has
come to the United States from Great
Britain since Lord Salisbury's answer
to Secretary 0lney, and the question
stands entirely on the correspondence
up to that time, and the subsequent
action of Congress-.
This disposes of several reports, in
Guiding one that Queen Victoria has
addressed personal communication,
similar in tone to the one sent by the
Prince of Wales, expressing the hope
that the two English speaking people
would have no serious differences Such
a direct communication would be ac-.
cording to the usage observed between
the heads of nations. but in the present
case Her Majesty has given no express
sion on the subject. 1t is known, how
ever, that President Crespo has sent
direct message to the executive branch
of the United States.
Among officials and the representa-
tives of the foreign powers interested,
it is said that no steps are contemplated
for the present beyond the formation of
the Venezuelan ComS. ission. In un-
official quarters the names of Messrs.
Phelps, Lincoln and Brewer are most
heard in connection with the commits
sion. The expectation is that the com
mission will convene very soon after
The names are announced, select their
secretaries, translators, interpreters and
executive officers, and determine upon
their course of procedure. The sum
of 500, 900 is available for expenses
I,a 80 A
good part of this will be expended in
the salaries Of the commissioners, which
will he commensurate with their sta.
tion and the importance of the work
involved.
The policy which the commission will
adopt is being awaited with much in
terest by those most concerned. Tho
act makes the commission independent
of the State Department and all execu-
tive control. so that it will be for the
body itself to decide on the method of
procedure and whether it will go
abroad to search foreign archives
On the part of Great Britain there ia
growing impression in official quar-
ters that Indirect participation in the
work of the commission will be secured.
The British attitude of late has been
favorable to an investigation by the
United States of the basis of tho
British claims, for it is felt that the
inquiry had been ex-parte up to the
time of the action Of Congress.
There was good reason to believe
when the commission was first proposed
that Great Britain would not recognize
it, and might take offence at its crea-
tion. But the names of the men men.
toned as likely to constitute it has
changed this feeling, until the present
indication is that the British will not
be averse to establishing before such a
body the rights which Lord Salisbury
stated to be incontestible.
