UPWARD IMPETUs-THE GLOBES"
CURIOUS COMMENTS.
London, Nov. 11.-All the news about the
Venezuela settlement since Lord Salisbury's
Guildhall speech has come from America. and
the only function OF the English press Is to
comment upon 1t good-humoredly. The action
Of the Venezuelan Commission in announcing
that 1t will not formulate its decision upon mat
ters subject to it's examination is greeted as n
graceful return compliment for Lord Salsbury's
reference to the American elections.
All English journals unite in expressing salts
faction over the prospect of speedy termina-
ton Of the boundary dispute and the establish
ment of cordial relations with the United
States. The most curious comment Is that of
"The Globe" which describes the recent COM
plications as a large storm in small teapot,
and congratuates Mr. Cleveland upon his re-
lease from fa'se and dangerous position, since
it would have been necessary for him to invade
Guiana in accordance with his message II the
Commission had reported agains. England.
THE Globe" asserts that this would have been
an unequal contest, and nobody in England
has desired the Humiliation of the statesman
who has been credited with the most friendly
sentiments toward the United Kingdom.
American securities have received an addi-
tional impetus from the Venezuela settlement
They are mounting steadily and reacting only
when the London market gets ahead or New
York quotations. The dulness In all lines OF
mining shares helps American stocks.

Venezuelan controversy. which we were nj nrs'
inclined to deny Is undisputed"

arbitration treaty says II welcomes the agreement
because II releases the United States from raise
and dangerous position. II the Commission had
reported adversely to Great Britain. the paper
adds President Cleveland would have been forced
TO attempt to coerce Great Britain or eat humpic
pie with the result that II the Washington Gov
ernment had fit TO enter the unequal contest
with England the development or the united STATES
would have beef retarded for half century the
Globe also says: at must be clearly understood
that the constitution of the new arbitration trib-
unal is not to establish precedent Tor arranging
all further disputes between the United states ana
the United Kingdom in North and South America
ready TO recognize Monroeism as IN
ternational law. .. a..
"The ST Jam SIS Gazette asks whether the
agreement will not throw into arbitration al OF
the region between the Schomburgk line ana the
settled territory Of Guiana. which England has de-
clared would be submitted 10 arbl'ralioh
which course the United States have declared Eng
land would be forced 10 take III " does. says
