the Venezuelan negotiations, adding
that the country might have reason IN
the future to be proud OF the steps ta-
ken IA the direction OF international
peace by the treaty Of arbitration.
The Hon. Alfred LYtleton, In second
ing the address, congratulated the Mar
Quls OF Salisbury on the arhitration
treaties.
Sir william Vernon Hareourt said he
thought the reference in the queens
speech TO the relations between Great
Britain and the United States was the
most Important and Batlgfactory point
OF the speech, adding;
Friendship between the two coun-
tries must always be the first carol-
nal principle Of English policy"
Referring to the arbitration treaty,
the Marquis OF Salisbury said that ie
was not claimed that It would avert the
possibility OF war; but, II would rem
der less probable the war-like r1rnorn
which tend TO create an excited teet-
ing between nations. The premier fur-
ther explained that Its principal value
is that It Is likely 20 lead 70 other
measures OF the same kind.
When business was resumed In the
house OF lords the Marquis OF Bath mov-
ed the address in reply TO the queen'a
speech. In so doing he referred In glow
inE terms to the sixtieth anniversary Of
the reign OF queen Victoria and TO the
arbitration treaty with the United
States, which he classed as being one OF
the greatest and most lllustrious attain
ments OF her majesty's reign.
Lord Kenyon, seconded the ADDRESS
and made a similar reference to the arhi-
tratlon treaties He added that tho
Venezuelan dispute was in fair way 90
settlement.
The Earl Of Kimberly the Liberal

lated the MARQUIS Of Salisbury on the ar

even weaker solutions have been sue

pends greatly upon the nature of the
tallings. Including an expenditure of
one shilling per ton for cyanide. the to-
tai cost of recovery mt the Robinson
mine is three shillings per ton. but this
does not include any royalty that may
be exactcd by holders of patents. The
average extraction of cyanide gold on
