In his last Message President Cleveland noted
that the Venezuelan difficulty ended, and
announced that negotiations for treaty of gen.
eral arbitration for all differences between the
United States and Great Britain were far ad-
vanced. OF the Wilson Tariff law he remarked
that with fair opportunity 1t would lin the
near future yield a revenue which, with reason
ably economical expenditures, will overcome all
deficiencies" The deficit for the last fiscal year
he stated to be $2j, 2t;. 245.
The most important subject brought to the
attention of Congress was the arbitration treaty
referred to in the Message. On January ii 1t
was signed by Secretary Olney and Sir Julian
PauncefOte. and was Immediately transmitted
by the President to the Senate. The principal
provisions follows The parties agree to
arbitrate all questions in difference which fail
OF adjustment by diplomacy All pecuniary
claims which in the aggregate do not exceed
flOOO. and do not involve the determination
of territorial claims, shall be dealt with by an
arbitration tribunal. Each party shall nominate
enc arbitrator, who shall be jurist of repute.
and these two shall select an umpire. In default
Of this the umpire shall be appointed by agree
ment between the members Of the Supreme
Court Of the United States and the nembers OF
the Judicial Committee Of the Privy Council OF
Great Britain. In case they fail to agree. the
umpire shall be selected by the King Of Nor.
way and Sweden. COntr Oversies involving the
determination of territorial claims to be de-
termned by a tribunal composed Of jursts Of
both countries.
On January 80 the Committee on Foreign AZ
fairs reported the treaty, with some amendments.
One Of the amendments provided that ques-
ton which affects the foreign or domestic policy
Of either Of the parties the relations of either
with any other State Power by treaty or
otherwise. shall be subject to arbitration under
the treaty, except by special agreement. An
other struck out all reference to the selection Of
an umpire by King oscar. Another provided
that if at any time before the close of hear
ing on any matter, except territorial claims.
either party declares that the decision Of dis
puted question excluded except by special agree
ment is involved. the jurisdiction Of the trl-
bur al shall cease. The treaty discussed to
considerable extent. and although there was
considerable feeling in favor Of its ratification
no action was taken before the close of the ses-
sion.
In January a treaty was signed on behalf Of
the United States and Great Britain for the de-
marcatiOn OF so much of the 141st meridian as
might be necessary for determining the boundary
Of Alaska
After several conferences both houses of Con-
gress passed bill placing further restrictions on
immigration. 1t admits the illIterate wives Of

country or not. ID

Guatemala. Feb. is.-Referring to the coming
exhibition. which will be opened on March 10, ana
from which all Guatemala expects the most iaVor-
able results IL must be remembered that ms ne
public has had great difficulties TO contehu w'"'
and considering its limited means OF communication
inexperlencc and other disadvantages IL mas uis-
played an amount OF energy unequalled. perhaps by
any other country. The credit Of this exhipooh
is due 10 President Barrios, who has aided IL III
every way In his power. He IL progressive has made
many improvements In the city. and Is competing
the Northern Railroad. which, when connecting with
the Guatemala Central will afford communication
from the Atlantic to the Pac!hc--a contamination
much to be desired and that Will prove o. the utmost
Importance TO the country. The management or
every detail relating 10 the Exhibition has been In
trusted to Central Committee that has worked
assiduousy for the success OF tho enterprise since
the cath OF ito former president. DR.. g. r. Guzman
which occurred last November the duties Of this ar
duous office have devolved upon j. Luis Bueron an
American citizen Nnety-two premiums. ranging
from 800 u 5000 besides gold and other medals. VIII
be distributed 10 exhibitors.
President Bueron believes that the Exhibition

longer but that 1t may be closed during portion
Of the rainy season. The main building Is almost
completed and by the end Of this month the build
now sufficiently advanced to set up machinery.
which is arriving daily. The English and Italian
departments will be completed in a few days In
addition TO the space assigned to the United states
and other countries. there are commodious quar-
tiers for goods from the Atlantic and Pacific coasts
In which the United States also figure.
The clergy will have ecclesiastical pavilion,
and many valuable works OF art will be forthcom-
ing throughout this and the other republics. In
this city there several meritorious specimens.
Two pictures by Zuburan 10 be found in the
Church OF Santo Domingo. and the Church or
Calvario contains two paintings attributed TO the
celebrated Spanish artist. Fradla. In the Ma
tional Library there Is rare old Bible. written
several centuries ago the only other copy OF which
exists In the British Museum. Guatemala has re-
fused $4,000 for this valuable manuscript.
II il TO be regretted that the Ferro Carr del
Norte does not yet connect with the capital Were
this important road running into Guatemala city,
al least double the number OF visitors would at
tend the Exhibition. The road Is In operation 10
Zacapa lO miles from Puerto Barrios. the At
lantic coast. but IT is graded and ready for rails
TO FL Rancho distance of l4 miles from said
port and will probably be completed 10 that point
by the end of April.
