This dispatch was one OF the earliest
state papers presented by Ambassador
HAY to the foreign office on his arrival in
London, and while the reply Of Lord Sal

ployed In the ease. there Was no appear
ance that unfriendlnesA had been extll'd
either before or after Mr.. Fosters return

gotiations have remained in progress, with
an increasing probability that the British
government will ultimately consent TO send

not affected by the comments Of the jour

though mild and innocuous In comparison
with President Cieveland's Venezuelan

herd II really a question. not Of interna-

Both Colonel Hay and Mr. Foster decline
to discuss the question. or 10 ray anything
except that the negotiations are making
satisfactory progrfas.
