new YORK, Nov. 25.-Ex.President
Andrew White OF Cornell university,
q member OF the Venezuelan boundary

said:
1.-THE work of the Venezuelan poun-
Diary commission Is about completed.
There 10 yet much to be done In the
minor details, such as printing aud
Issuing the material the commission
has gathered, but the real work for
which the commission was appointed
ia completed. In view Of the recent
turn OF the affairs, it is possible that
the report OF the commission may not
be made.
1.-THE committee has served useful
purpose because 1t has brought about
tho BEST way to arrive at the solution
Of the question. The com mission has
worked steadily and have together o
large mass OF important material, elias.
sifled and gotten into proper connec-
ton with the matter at issue.

amined nearly 800 maps and has made

Cornell has worked In various libraries

from time 10 time reports Of great value

orders In Rome, especially Of the

sent us from time to time MAPS and
statements showing the extension OF
the Spanish mission in the disputed
territory.
"The certified copies OF the mvst i'm.
In the Spanish archives have been
laid before the United States,
The commission has prepared
probably the best maps ever made OF
the whole territory between the
Orinocco and the Essequibe rivers,
and In addition to special maps we
have had published documents to
the number of twenty or thirty.
All this matter will be trans.
ferred to the arbitration tribunal
and cannot fail to be Of tue greatest
use TO that body In saving q vast deal
Of trouble and great expense. II will
also allow that body TO discharge it's
duty in much the less time than 1t
could otherwise have done. The WORK,
therefore, OF tue commission has bsen
preliminary and preparatory to the
arbitration tribunal.
"The establishment OF the arbitra.
ton tribunal has been most honors BILE
to the present administration and II
seems to me 1t will act as guarantee
OF continued peace between the U nited
States and Great Britain. This second
great arbitration 30 clearly points to
the solution OF the international diff.
culties that peace may be considered
az permanently established between
theAtwo nations, no matter how diff.
cult the questions which may arise
hereafter" -
Mr.. White said the only question
the commission had not touched upon
was that 0fthe fiity years. occupancy OF
the settlers. That, he added, would
hare to be settled By expert testimony.
